Love  and miss you Bro but still have great memories

There are too many great memories with Steve to have a favorite! I miss his silly grin, his stories, the way he mispronounced words (usually on purpose).  He was such a good daddy to our precious baby girl, Megan. I know he’s in heaven watching over us now. I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon, until then in my dreams. Your loving wife.

Steve blessed our family in so many ways. He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and the perfect addition to our family. He was the brother that John never had. We’re so thankful that he and Sandy found one another.  What a beautiful family they created.  He will always be missed. Until we meet again… 

I hold  onto memories 
The ones that are so dear
To try to keep you always close 
Now you are not here
You were called, it was your time 
But it is so true
You have left a legacy 
There was no like you 
You were very special 
And I want to say 
I feel lost in many ways 
You are not here today 
But I will never forget you
And I know I have been blessed 
To have you for my brother 
Because you were the best 
Love you bro
John

God's love for Steve is evident in His gift of Sandy. My brother and her made a beautiful life together and faced all the challenges as a team. I'm so thankful for that and proud of my brother for being an overcomer.  I'm also thankful for the gift of a Savior so that we can all be together again one day.  See you soon, brother. Love, Nance

So very sorry for your loss, Sandy. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sending love and prayers  to my niece sandy and family  wish I could be there will be saying prayers  to get you guys all the comfort  you all need love aunt Mary Hamilton  and dana

Sorry to hear of your loss. Prayers for strength and comfort during this time.

Probably his favorite thing to do... Be PawPaw. You will be missed Steve.

My little brother Steve lived life big. Big love for family, especially for devoted wife Sandy, daughter Megan and the precious grandkids. Big in his generosity toward others, always extending a helping hand quietly. Big is the presence of his absence but praise God little brother we will be with you again.
